I Kings 18:36-40; 19:1-5

36. At the time of sacrifice, the prophet Elijah stepped forward and prayed: "O LORD, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all these things at your command.
37. Answer me, O LORD, answer me, so these people will know that you, O LORD, are God, and that you are turning their hearts back again."
38. Then the fire of the LORD fell and burned up the sacrifice, the wood, the stones and the soil, and also licked up the water in the trench.
39. When all the people saw this, they fell prostrate and cried, "The LORD--he is God! The LORD--he is God!"
40. Then Elijah commanded them, "Seize the prophets of Baal. Don't let anyone get away!" They seized them, and Elijah had them brought down to the Kishon Valley and slaughtered there.

1. Now Ahab told Jezebel everything Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
2. So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah to say, "May the gods deal with me, be it ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I do not make your life like that of one of them."
3. Elijah was afraid and ran for his life. When he came to Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there,
4. while he himself went a day's journey into the desert. He came to a broom tree, sat down under it and prayed that he might die. "I have had enough, LORD," he said. "Take my life; I am no better than my ancestors."
5. Then he lay down under the tree and fell asleep. All at once an angel touched him and said, "Get up and eat."
